IT consultancy and digital transformation
IT strategy, systems and process audits, digitisation of paper procedures, e-government advisory, feasibility studies and technical project management.
Many IT projects fail before any code is written: by buying the wrong tool, by digitising a broken process without fixing it first, or by never defining who is responsible for what. Consultancy exists to prevent exactly that.
The work starts by understanding the process as it actually runs today, with its shortcuts and its exceptions, rather than as the manual says it should. From there it becomes possible to decide what deserves digitising, in what order and with what technology, and what should be simplified before anything is touched.

Systems diagnostic, procedure digitisation roadmap, drafting of technical tender documents and supervision of external vendors.

Evaluation of data platforms, requirements definition and verification that what was delivered matches what was contracted.

Understand your goals, your users and your real constraints: budget, timeline, connectivity, available staff and legacy systems.
Design
Technical architecture, user experience and a written plan that you approve before a single line of code is written.
Build
Iterative development with frequent demonstrations. You see real progress every week, not a status report.
Deploy
Secure launch, verified data migration and training for the team that will use the system every day.
Support
Maintenance, monitoring, backups and continuous improvement under a clear agreement.
Frequently asked questions
Can I engage only the consultancy, without the development?
Yes, and in many cases it is the sensible choice. We deliver an audit or a roadmap as closed work, and you then decide who executes it. The independence of the diagnostic is precisely what gives it value.
What does a systems audit deliver?
A written report with the systems inventory, the risks found and their severity, the critical dependencies, and a prioritised action plan with cost and effort estimates. It is also presented in a working session with your team.
Do you help write tender specifications?
Yes. Writing the technical specification properly is the most effective way to receive comparable bids and to avoid the project becoming captive to a single vendor.
Will you work with vendors I already have under contract?
Yes. Part of technical project management is reviewing what third parties deliver and verifying that it matches what was contracted, in quality and in scope.
